@Gargron I already knew about @Mastodon, which I always found interesting. The Elon buyout was the push I needed to join actually.

@Gargron I mean… it’s why I’m here.

@Gargron I'm new here

@Gargron got it.

@Gargron Thank you 🙏

@Gargron I hope once things for you are running smoothly again you find the time to write about this tech journey what you did and what you learned.

@Gargron So, I don’t have the time or energy to host a server for other people (outside of my family/friend circle), but I’m wondering: as a simple user, would it better technically if I hosted my own server (with only me on it)?

I’m not asking ideologically speaking, but on a technical level.

Does load actually decrease for each individual instances if users spread out?

@Gargron What does the 'daily backup' entail? My server backs up the database hourly and copies it off-server, but the entire server only backs up weekly (due to the size of data involved). My instance has been running since 2017.

@Gargron Link is giving me a 404 Page Not Found.

@Gargron @Nigma I’m happy to help too if there’s anything y’all need.

@Gargron @Nigma the new mastodon app is looking good. Can we have telegram-style emoji?

@Gargron @Nigma why can I log on via the web but not the app? I have reset the password but still not working.

Bonjour ! mastodon.social est lent en ce moment, d'après ce que je peux dire parce qu'il y a deux fois plus de personnes qui l'utilisent en même temps que par le passé ; je travaille à le rendre plus rapide à nouveau, mais en attendant, n'oubliez pas d'inviter les gens à joinmastodon.org plutôt que directement à mastodon.social. Les gens n'ont pas besoin d'être sur le même serveur pour vous suivre ! Merci !

@Gargron
Thank you for your effort and for having us!

@Gargron Thanks for all your work

@Gargron thanks for Mastodon!

@Gargron Maybe I should revive my idea to do a similar approach for Facebook. You have done a great job here. Very inspiring.

@Gargron Smart man! ;)

@Gargron The app is amazing! Thank you!

@Gargron In excited to try it on Android.

@Gargron ,Still Personally Struggling To Sign Via App For Android :/ :(

Just Signed Up Late Yesterday Afternoon/Evening :)

Seem To Only Able To Sign Up Via Direct Websites :/ :)

Great Website & Looking For It To Grow More, Now #ElonMusk Just Bought #Twitter :/ :( 😞

@Gargron Devy is such a wholesome performer, I saw him just before COVID and it was easily one of the most memorable nights of my life

@Gargron Thanks for sharing!

@Gargron \m/

@Gargron will you add servers with active modaration against lgbt propoganda and radical sjw and feminism?

@Gargron does this policy apply only to servers being linked from the picker page or alsod to servers that mastadon.social will federate to?

@Gargron I am one of those returning users. Hi

@Gargron My congratulations to your success

That-s because FB and Tw are witch hunting.

@Gargron its not clear how can I join/leave a community? 😩

@Gargron keep up the amazing work. #mastodonandroid

@Gargron What's the difference between the explore tab and local/federated timelines?

@Gargron But does it have local and/or federated timelines?

@Gargron I like the discovery tab.

@Gargron Awesome, like the new search.

@Gargron Please consider including a link to a full changelist. I can't stand app update notes that just say "Bug fixes and performance enhancements"

@Gargron you could always link to the full changelog? :thaenkin:

@Gargron maybe an in-app change log is required?

F-DROID WHEN

@Gargron it doesn't update because there's a conflictive package

I've installed from F-Droid 'n it works!

Thank you so much

@Gargron Thanks for this app, can't wait to test it. Is there a f-droid release planned or somewhere I could get the apk out of Google ecosystem?

@Gargron But my Android devices have Android 6.0 or higher.

@Gargron
Too bad I need to login with those sites. I won't log in to product hunt again unless they permit to just use an email address. Sorry that I can't contribute atm. :/

Leprous was amazing on that night. Their sound, lighting and music were top tier. Quite frankly they overshadowed Devin Townsend's performance.

@Gargron Baard Kolstad is such an amazing drummer!

@Gargron WOW! This is truly amazing! It gives me the vibes of The Billion Dollar Code! So cool!

@Gargron Yay! Time to localize!

@Gargron rip there is no Hungarian

@Gargron App should have option to switch languages! Hope you will implement it sometime soon

@Gargron Guess we have to grease the wheels of big tech.

@Gargron I'm guessing once we get some more installs it will rise in the rankings. I used a direct link on my browser to find it - not ideal. It looks great though!

@Gargron probably google tries to slow down the spread of #mastodon on #google #playstore #android

@Gargron five percent of a century

@Gargron reminds me of those psycho parents that refuse to accept their child has aged beyond a week.

Oh, how old is he?
47 weeks.

@Gargron Vote for Mastodon! https://mastodon.social/@localish/108162263365886860

Misinformation

@Gargron That's better.
